The Congressional Record is a unique source of public documentation. It started in 1873, documenting nearly all the major and minor policies being discussed and debated.
“A CALL FOR INVESTIGATION OF THE FBI AND JUSTICE DEPARTMENT IN THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF OHIO” mentioning the U.S. Dept. of Justice was published in the House of Representatives section on pages H5090 on June 26, 2000.
The publication is reproduced in full below:
A CALL FOR INVESTIGATION OF THE FBI AND JUSTICE DEPARTMENT IN THE
NORTHERN DISTRICT OF OHIO
(Mr. TRAFICANT asked and was given permission to address the House for 3 minutes.)
Mr. TRAFICANT. Mr. Speaker, I am under investigation in the Northern District of Ohio by the United States Justice Department, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Internal Revenue Service. They have targeted me for 20 years.
They suborned perjury in my first trial, where I am the only American in the history of the country to have defeated the Justice Department in a RICO case pro se, and they have never forgotten it and they have targeted me ever since.
The bottom line is there may be an indictment any day. But during this period of time where I have been targeted, I have been investigating the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Justice Department in the Northern District of Ohio. FBI agents in the northern district of Ohio have been on the payroll of the Mob. They have been bank rolled by the Mob. In fact, the Mob had directed the first indictment of Jim Traficant.
Mr. Speaker, in addition, I have credible evidence and an affidavit that supports the fact that an individual informant has charged the FBI with asking him to commit murder. I will be presenting these matters to a respective committee of Congress asking for a committee investigation with full subpoena powers to back up the affidavits that I have before me.
So, Mr. Speaker, having taken this time, I thank the Chair for allowing me to make such a statement.
